Awk Missing

You should be able to get the deb off the install cd for gawk/awk. Try use 
dpkg to install it before you head off for the source. You may be in a 
catch-22 needing gcc to compile the source and needing apt to install gcc...

OTOH, gawk may already be in /usr/bin and all you need to do is create a 
symlink from 'awk' to 'gawk'
